I'll check that out. I've had good luck with Fidelity products. My big

focus lately has been REITs and business development companies. I've got some paying obscene yields. The beauty on the REITs is they can't arbitrarily cut the dividend just because the yield is so high, they have to distribute 90% of their income to keep REIT status and tax benefits. I'm loving this "get your ass back in the office" mantra now. It's taken a couple years of faith and patience, but it's really starting to pay off.

The near term economic value of AI is similar to offshoring

Genetic AI most definitely IS a thing
turkeywinghokie • 01/27/25 02:30 PM ET

Yep, NVDA days may be numbered. They SUPPOSEDLY have a way to do AI with
UTPr0sim • 01/27/25 02:05 PM ET
You have to consider the source. Did they really do it for 6 million?

Va AandM • 01/27/25 01:08 PM ET
I'm betting they had the most advanced chips and used them even though
ElbertoHokie • 01/27/25 02:02 PM ET
